FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — May 6, 2015 — Golden Krust Caribbean Bakery & Grill of Bronx, NY is recalling 6,188 cases of Shrimp and Soya Patties, Net Wt. 17.2 lbs, due to an undeclared egg allergen. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to eggs run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

The Shrimp and Soya Patties were distributed directly to Golden Krust stores in the Northeast, through a distributor for Golden Krust stores in FL and GA and three other distributors.

Product cases are marked on the side with the following expiration dates: 1/24/2015 through 2/26/2016. Each bulk case contains 50 individual frozen pieces lined with parchment paper.
